Nut
Sauteed Radicchio, Orange, Bacon, and Pecan Salad
The sweet oranges and the smoky bacon in this salad balance the gentle bitterness of the radicchio; the pecans give the whole thing a nutty crunch.

Beef en Croûte with Coriander Walnut Filling
Tenderloin roasts vary in shape, size, and weight. For this recipe it's important that the tenderloin be of uniform shape and size. If you can't find a whole tenderloin, 2 center-cut pieces will work. (cut a whole one in half in order to brown it on top of the stove.)
Caramel-Hazelnut Cheesecake
"I'm a music teacher, and baking is the extracurricular activity I like most," says Sue Reddin Ellison of Edgewater, Colorado. "This cheesecake is a family favorite as well as an impressive do-ahead dessert for entertaining. I make a similar version with pecans instead of hazelnuts; either way, everyone loves the smooth filling and the nutty crust."
Begin preparing this a day before serving.
